[quote=Anonymous]This is like visits to my MIL. We sit at her house all day. She quickly runs out of things to talk about. She does like to cook for visitors. Occasionally we go to a restaurant. I think it's important to make these visits because family is family and you have to deal with them how they are. If your husband was well-raised, not abused, and bettered himself, he owes his parents some kindness as thanks. Even if they have nothing in common. Your children are absorbing your values. In my house the kids understand that although it may be boring, their grandma loves them and likes to view them in person. My ILs got my husband off to college in one piece, with orthodontia complete, despite many lean years. We find it helps a lot to stay at a hotel instead of at her small home where some of us have to sleep in the living room. If you haven't tried that, make that your next step. [/quote]
